Hello
Thanks for your query.Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have mild enlargement of prostate and taking Finast .If you do not have symptoms like increased frequency of urination, Nocturia or poor stream you may not take finast at this point of time.
You may take Tomsulosin to improve urine flow.
keep monitoring size of the prostate by doing Ultrasound scanning every 3 months.
